Worried About Atlassian’s Acquisition of Trello? Join the World’s Best Software Teams Using ZenHub and GitHub

First thing this morning news broke that Trello is being acquired by Atlassian. Following the announcement, the Twitterverse has had quite a lot to say:

Welp. Atlassian bought out Trello. Oh boy here comes the JIRA blight.

Maybe @Atlassian will update @trello to play the "price is right lose theme" when it's integrated with JIRA & free accts are gone. #badnews

I love #Trello, but I can't say the same for Jira: I find it bloated, unusable, expensive. I'm a bit worried by the Atlassian acquisition.

I hope this doesn't mean @trello's UI will get as "good" as other @Atlassian products. https://t.co/M7exJLnwMA

First, we’re sincerely happy for the founders of Trello. It’s always exciting to hear about a successful technology acquisition take place! But if you’re one of the many project managers or developers now worried that Trello will become as clunky as JIRA, it’s time to join the world’s best software teams who use ZenHub.

ZenHub and ZenHub Enterprise integrate natively inside of GitHub and GitHub Enterprise respectively, completely eliminating the need to work between two separate interfaces. Developers stay happy and remain close to the code in GitHub, and project managers enjoy speed, transparency and the frictionless collaboration they’ve always dreamed of.

ZenHub grew substantially in 2016, tripling in size on both our small-medium sized business and Enterprise products. Our roster of customers includes the likes of Microsoft, Adobe, Starbucks, Comcast, Docker, VMware, and Sony to name a few.
